It cost more than that to get to a meeting and back in fuel for Gods sake.
I am really struggling to work out what the fuss is about.
The BRCA don't just look at the casings you know.
The criteria is huge to pass and get on the list and I think they do an amazing job for us.
OK - you can all have another go - LOL

I think the point is Tony, that the aim should be to decrease the cost of racing, not add to it. Ironically half (I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong) the people doing the nationals don't even pay for their equipment anyway, or they are heavily discounted, to the point that their batteries (as this seems to be the main issue of this thread) probably cost less than most people pay retail for their nano tech batteries anyway.
